Iâll keep my faith alive
Cause this is paradise or parricide
I canât believe this sight
Streets full of blank faces and junky eyes
The streets wonât sleep tonight
A lullaby for the half-alive
The city swings and whines
To the double crime of drugs and hard times
Lion city sirens sing the night away, night away
Lion city sirens sing the night away
The city feels like a cage
Feels like a powder keg
Thatâs almost set to explode
Lion cityâs begun to rot
Itâs a matter of time until the roaring stops
The scene from the ground up
From the painted walls to the rooftops
My cityâs closed and locked
While the hop of the beat crack our sidewalks
The haves and the have-nots
Paint the backdrops of drugs and gunshots
lion city sirens sing the night away, night away
Lion city sirens sing the night away
Thereâs an overdose on me
And he does the cocaine shake
Cause the lion city sirens sing the night away
The city seems like itâs trapped
Between its future and its past
Life or death of a city not coming back
The city feels like a cage
Feels like a powder keg
And now itâs gonna explode
Lion city sirens sing the night away, night away
Lion city sirens sing the night away
Thereâs an overdose on me
And itâs wearing out good things
Cause lion city sirens sing the night away
Sing the night away
Sing the night away
And I wonât be long
